The first line drug for slowing the effects of Sjögren’s is hydroxychloroquine.

I was diagnosed through blood tests in Jan. 2020 and immediately started hydroxychloroquine. It has helped my arthritis and inflammation symptoms by a huge margin. I also use meloxicam and Tylenol, restasis, compounded estrogen cream for vaginal dryness.

Please go on Smart Patients website to get additional help from other Sjögren’s patients. It is run by an MD with Sjögren’s and has helped me immeasurably.
